Impeccable Service: A Prompt and Attentive Experience

From the moment we stepped into Restoran Tian Lai, we were greeted with impeccable service. Despite the bustling atmosphere and a full house, the staff managed to astound us with their efficiency and attentiveness. Promptly attended to, we marveled at the speed with which our food arrived, allowing us to dive right into our highly anticipated chili crab feast.

The Magnificent Chili Crabs: A Spicy and Subtly Sweet Delight

The stars of the show at Restoran Tian Lai are undoubtedly the chili crabs. Opting for the large-sized chili crab, we were in for a treat. As the dish was presented before us, the sheer size of the crabs left us in awe. With robust shells that crackled enticingly, we knew we were in for a flavor-packed experience. Each bite revealed an explosion of flavors—spicy, yet subtly sweet, with an enticing aroma that tantalized our senses. The thick and irresistibly rich sauce coated the succulent meat of the crabs perfectly, creating a finger-licking experience that left us completely satisfied.

The Addictive Salted Egg Crabs: A Savory and Aromatic Delight

Restoran Tian Lai also delights diners with their salted egg crabs. We couldn't resist ordering the large-sized salted egg crab, and it did not disappoint. Bathed in a heavenly mixture of salted egg, the crabs offered a savory and aromatic delight that was simply irresistible. The perfectly balanced flavors showcased the skillful preparation that went into creating this dish. It was a guilty pleasure that we savored until the very last bite.

Generous Portions: A Feast for the Senses

To complement the outstanding flavors, Restoran Tian Lai offers generous portions. The size of the crabs was truly impressive, ensuring that each bite was filled with an abundance of juicy, tender meat. This, combined with the richness of the sauces, made for an indulgent experience that exceeded our expectations.

Price and Worth: A Splurge That Delivers

Quality often comes with a price, and at Restoran Tian Lai, the cost reflects the exceptional flavors and dining experience offered. The large-sized chili crab and salted egg crab each cost 210 ringgit, resulting in a total bill of 420 ringgit for both dishes. While it may be considered a splurge, the unforgettable taste and overall experience make it worth every penny.

Xiang Di Mi Fen Pasir Panjang Food Centre – Fatty Ipoh Noodles Review

  When you think of crispy noodle dishes, most of us immediately picture the classic deep-fried yee mee swimming in luscious egg sauce gravy. But over at  Fatty Ipoh Noodles (肥仔怡保炒粉)  in  Pasir Panjang Food Centre , there’s something different sizzling away on the wok. Enter the  Xiang Di Mi Fen (香底米粉)  – a rare twist that swaps out yee mee for bee hoon, and the results are worth every crunchy bite. View this post on Instagram A post shared by YumzYumz.com (@yumzyumzsg) What makes Xiang Di Mi Fen special? Here’s the magic: instead of sturdy yee mee, the hawker goes with delicate bee hoon. Deep-frying bee hoon isn’t as straightforward – it’s finer, more brittle, and breaks more easily, which means it takes extra skill to get it golden, crispy, and ready to hold up under a blanket of silky gravy. That’s already a show of craft. The glorious egg sauce gravy Once the fried bee hoon hits the plate, it’s doused with a  luxurious egg sauce gravy  that cl...

View this post on Instagram A post shared by YumzYumz.com (@yumzyumzsg) Their noodles were amazingly springy, coupled with their awesome thick chili that was spicy and marbled with texture. Mixed together with their noodles and you get a delectable and tremendously satisfying combi. Thrown into the mix was an egg with runny yolk for the added smoothness and silky texture added to the noodles. For the crunchy department comes in the form of savoury crunchy ikan bilis, as well as crispy deep fried shallots and garlic for the uplifting flavour and aromatics. On the side, we had their deep fried pork cutlet, chopped into bite-sized chunks. They were fabulously deep in distinct flavour, crunchy and varying and superior in taste and texture. Although greasy, it was a marvelous pairi...

Hunan Pork Belly at Xiang Xiang Hunan: Crunchy, Spicy, and Lip-Smacking Good

  You know a dish is that good when you keep coming back for it. And that’s exactly what happened on our third visit to Xiang Xiang Hunan Cuisine 湘香湖南菜 —this time at AMK Hub. We already had high expectations from our past experiences, but once again, their Hunan pork belly blew us away. View this post on Instagram A post shared by YumzYumz.com (@yumzyumzsg) What Makes This Hunan Pork Belly Stand Out? First off, let’s talk about the star of the show: their Hunan stir fry pork , made with a heavenly combo of Iberico pork belly and lean pork. It’s a dish that really brings out the spirit of Hunan cooking—bold, fragrant, slightly spicy, and loaded with green pepper aromatics. The pork belly is wonderfully fatty and tender, with that unmistakable richness that Iberico pork is known for. The lean pork adds a nice balance so it doesn’t get overly unctuous. And then there's the rabbit ear fungus. Yes, rabbit ear fungus—also known as Mu Er or Yunnan black fungus . It...
